I started enjoying the creative writing of Stephanie Grace Whitson through her contemporary novels and this is the first of her Christian Historical Fiction novels that I have read in full. I loved almost every bit of it. The characters brought me in from the very beginning and kept me interested through out. I was startled by the ending as it seemed rather abrupt and the beginning of the epilogue seems to be missing something. Yet otherwise it was an enjoyable read.
While the social class and assumptions made by Samuel and Fannie might appear as an unsuitable match, it is there private and personal decisions of direction for their lives that is more the questionable match in truly trusting where God is leading without question. There is romance and mystery as well as tragedy and adveture. All in all, it is a page turner.
